    The Schönauklamm lies around one kilometer northwest of Schönaudorf.

    In this beech-maple-ash forest it is cool, damp and a bit dusky - that is a welcome cooling off on hot summer days.

    But a visit is also worthwhile in other ways: Fire salamanders can be observed - especially during and after rain - and the yellow-bellied toad likes to hang out in pools. Common bird species are great spotted woodpecker, greenling, cuckoo, great tit, blackcap, wood pigeon, robin and coal tit. On the other hand, the black woodpecker and tawny owl are rarer.

    The undergrowth of the shady trees is partly lush with the yellow-flowered tuberous comfrey, the first pink, then bluish spot lungwort (Hansel & Gretel) and the white-flowered bitter foam herb. The tall ostrich fern looks original.

    The starting point of the hike is the parking facility at the upper (northern) end of the Schönauklamm one kilometer northwest of Schönaudorf: The path (Fieberbründlweg 945) leads south from the parking facility - initially flat downhill, then, increasingly steeper, into the canyon forest of the Schönauklamm to lead down. With the connecting road via Schönaudorf it becomes a circular route.
